Chirality is known to affect a number of properties including those of an optical, electrical or magnetic nature. The effect chirality has on these properties causes a variety of nontrivial phenomena ...

Chemical bonds within the eye-lens protein gamma-B crystallin hold the protein together and are therefore important for the function of the protein within the lens. Contrary to previous assumptions, ...

THE data of H. Isnardi 1 show that the dielectric constant of carbon disulphide undergoes at the temperature of −90° C. a sudden change. This phenomenon appears at a considerably higher temperature ...

Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www ...

THE investigations of Isnardi 1 have shown that the value of the dielectric constant of carbon disulphide falls suddenly at −90°. This drop appears at a considerable distance from the freezing point ...
